  Da una magnum sboccatura tardiva del 22/04/21. 24 anni sui lieviti (e sono tanti!). Parte di un uscita speciale di tre super millesimati (solo in magnum): 1997, 1999, 2000. Degustato alla cieca. Prima impressione di grande maturità: frutta bianca matura, frutti esotici, agrumi, pasticceria e canditi. Il naso si schiude progressivamente sempre più complesso, allargando lo spettro olfattivo che si arricchisce di frutti rossi e lascia emergere un sottofondo appena affumicato.
  Al palato cremoso, con una bolla molto fine e per nulla appuntita, freschezza e sapidità che giocano in sinergia con la notevole maturitá. Un Champagne ricco e opulento complesso ma agile e dotato di un finale che allunga in bella progressione.

  Still plenty of bubbles surprisingly and a mature taste but not too dominant. A pleasant surprise as I was worried about its age.

  Drank at 67 (Magnum)
  Nicely evolving. Faint notes of nuts and slight oxidation.

  Brought this to our wine group dinner last night, where one of the highlights was Luis' 2000 Le Montrachet Marquis de Laguiche from Maison Joseph Drouhin. The L-P was lacking; not many bubbles, a bit tired. It was drinkable and a few people said they appreciated the mature flavors. But this wasn't as good as my last bottle two year ago. Alas, this one was my last bottle of a six-pack case purchased in 2006. So even though it has been well stored over the years, its time had come.

  Really an excellent Champagne. Drank with sautéd prawns and fresh green beans from the garden. Straw color, forward on the palette, nice finish.
